“The outfit Shuri is wearing in this scene features an Adinkra symbol (cultural visual symbols from the Asante/Ghana region of Africa) on it. This Adinkra symbol means ‘purpose,’ and she certainly has a purpose in Wakanda.”
i know the thor fandom likes to paint loki as the bitchy fashion sibling because it’s so easy but let’s look at the FACTS here ladies….thor:
1.had a godmode reveal in his first movie that involved him transforming into a cool outfit like an anime magical girl
2. took time to blow-dry his hair on the avengers plane while everyone was fighting each other
3. was and continues to be the first one to call loki out on his clothing & grooming choices (”you dress like a witch” “your helmet looks like a cow” “looks a little less greasy than i remember him” etc)
4. wore that slutty poncho in the dark world for no reason
5. the age of ultron outfit. u know the one. with the blazer…and the ponytail
6. dragged hulk’s interior decor for filth in ragnarok
7. cried while getting a haircut like he was a 18-year-old girl receiving a traumatic makeover on america’s text top model
Update: Legolas’ pupils are about 3.5 cm wide each. Now drawing kawaii Legolas on physics assignment.
And they told you science was no fun.
Science!
I’m going to do it. I’m going to hand it in.
Legolas’s pupil size isn’t the problem here, though. 5 leagues is 17.262 miles. The curvature of the Earth means that for a person of average height, the visual horizon is less than three miles away. Even if your vision is telescopic and the atmosphere is perfectly clear, you can’t see around the planet. If they were standing on a hill, it would have to be at LEAST 198 feet above sea level in order to see the horizon at 17.2 miles away, with nothing tall in between. Which, knowing Rohan, isn’t impossible.
But consider: Elven satellite eyeballs.
you mean like
@sidereanuncia it’s back, the post that I can only imagine haunts your nightmares
I shall never find peace.
Also, for what it’s worth, there’s absolutely no reason to believe that the curvature of Middle Earth is the same as that of Earth.
There’s no evidence that Middle Earth curves.
Yeah there is. The Silmarillion states that the world was curved after the fall of Numenor (I believe), preventing access to Valinor. But Elves (among others) can travel the straight path across it.
So middle earth is round, but not for Elves because magic.
So wait, the reason he can see that far is because Elves just have the ability to ignore the curve of the earth? That’s awesome. It also means that no matter how good your optics got, you would always want elf eyes manning the spyglass because they can see arbitrarily far while everybody else is limited by this ‘horizon’ bullshit.
Oh thank God, my poor elf prince has seen too much in this post
Elves are flat-earthers
This post went from amusing to horrifying, to be brought back down to amusing, sprinkled in with some cannon explanation, and then you leave me here in fucking outrage
Rey had more chemistry with Finn in the twelve (12) seconds they interacted than she had or will ever have with Kyle and if u disagree go ahead and softblock me right now
I’ve seen some complaints about how ugly this outfit is, but you guys – this is PRECISELY how someone who has been a questionably styled man for 1300+ years would attempt to dress a woman’s body. I effing love it. Doctor, you hopeless, wonderful creature.
okay but imagine tho
nobody recognizes thirteen as the Doctor at first because “you never told me you can change gender????”
but then kate lethbridge-stewart from UNIT stops by, and thirteen immediately braces herself for another five minutes of trying to prove she’s the Doctor
and kate’s just like “hi Doctor good to see you again here’s the deal”
“hold on, you recognize me? how’d you know it was me?”
“honey, you’re the only person in the universe who would even begin to think about putting something like THAT on their body”
Yeah, we’re talking about a person who used to dress like THIS:
And don’t forget Four’s mega-scarf. Or Ten wearing converse with fancy evening wear.
Five wore a fucking vegetable on his stupid cricket outfit, but this is where you draw the line?
